Per Hurricane Watch, the Caps have signed goaltender Brandon Anderson (pictured) to an entry level contract (note: an earlier report refers only to the Caps having extended an offer). The Capitals have not yet confirmed either report.

The undrafted netminder "used Lethbridge Hurricanes head coach and general manager Rich Preston’s connections to wrangle an invite to the Washington Capitals training camp," and walked away with a deal. Not bad for a kid who was "literally two days away from being send to play Junior "A" in B.C. last season."

Update: Lethbridge is congratulating Anderson on his new deal on their website.

Update: The team has confirmed the three-year entry-level contract.
